Final answer:

An attorney selling real estate as part of their legal practice does not need a real estate license, while salespersons working for commissions, property management companies, and individuals selling real estate on behalf of others typically do.

Step-by-step explanation:

The person who would NOT need a real estate license in the scenario provided is A. An attorney selling real estate in an estate. Typically, attorneys who conduct real estate transactions as part of their legal services are exempt from the requirement to hold a real estate license. This is because their principal duty is to provide legal services, not to engage in real estate brokerage activities.

On the other hand, a salesperson working for a builder (B) would likely need a license since they are directly involved in selling real estate for a commission. Similarly, a property management company (C) is generally responsible for managing the sales, leasing, and administration of real estate properties, which in most jurisdictions would require a real estate license. Lastly, a friend selling a neighbor's lot for a monetary value (D), even if as a one-time transaction, would typically need to be licensed to legally handle such a sale.
